Anaal Nathrakh streams new song

Birmingham extreme metal miscreants and recent Metal Blade signees, ANAAL
NATHRAKH, are pleased to infect the masses with their anticipated new
full-length this Fall. Titled Desideratum, the follow-up to 2012's
critically-lauded Vanitas full-length was again produced by
guitarist/bassist/programmer Mick Kenney, with vocals recorded at Necrodeath
Studios in Birmingham, while the music was tracked and mixed at The Black
Flamingo in Orange County, California. The final product boasts ten emotionally
traumatizing hymns of unrepentant, audio deviance embodying the crux of pure
evil.

ANAAL NATHRAKH - Kenney alongside vocalist David Hunt AKA
V.I.T.R.I.O.L. - exists for one purpose: to be the soundtrack to the apocalypse;
the audial essence of evil, hatred and violence, the true spirit of necro taken
to its musical extremes. Since forming in 1999, the devious duo has gained a
reputation for embodying precisely these things. With both screaming banshee and
traditional vocals set against a backdrop of controlled chaos, what ANAAL
NATHRAKH manifests is plainly frightening. Their winding history includes
not only the release of seven albums and an EP to rapturous acclaim, but
collaborations with such iconic figures as Attila Csihar (Mayhem), Shane Embury
and Danny Herrera (Napalm Death), Nick Barker (Testament, Dimmu Borgir), Joe
Horvath (Circle Of Dead Children), Sethlans Teitan (Watain) and moren. This,
alongside appearing on BBC Radio 1 at the personal behest of sadly missed legend
John Peel, headlining a stage at the renowned cult Inferno Festival in Norway as
their debut international live appearance, countless rankings among "best album
of the year" polls and "album of the month" in the press and cover appearances
on leading magazines such as Terrorizer, ANAAL NATHRAKH's status as one
of the leading lights in extreme metal is undeniable. Uniquely hallmarked by
breathtaking musical ferocity, inventiveness and breadth, married with
mercurial, intensely misanthropic and sharp intelligence, ANAAL
NATHRAKH's sound is imbued with a palpable sense of menace that is virtually
unmatched in metal. This year ANAAL NATHRAKH are set to reach ever higher
on their mission to send the Earth crashing into the
Sun.

Desideratum will devour the masses whole
on October 27th, 2014. In the meantime, you are cordially invited to sear the
skin right off your bones with first single, "Idol," now streaming at metalblade.com/anaalnathrakh where you'll also find a host of
menacing preorder packages. Additionally, fans who preorders the record via
iTunes will receive a download of "Idol" instantly.
